Trapped

Yesterday morning, just after baby #2 came over for the day, our management informed me that they would be replacing our stairs. Then they told me not to worry, because they would put replacement stairs in place while they were working. And here is their idea of replacement stairs: Anyone want to carry 2 babies down this? These stairs are literally the only way to get to my aparment. So I was inside, all day, with 2 babies. And I had to send baby #2 home in our hiking back pack, because that's the only way her dad would take her down that ladder when he picked her up.

Luckily, I have no problem scaling a ladder with a baby. I went to say goodbye to Bradon for the night, because he was staying in a hotel for his competition the next day. And after that, I had the best time ever with Jennifer. We ate awesome barbecue, shared a seriously enormous slice of chocolate cake with Violet, and watched a movie at my house. I almost invited her to sleep over but she needed to spend some time with her boyfriend before she moves. Crap. I'm going to miss her.

Who is this Bradon you speak of? And why are you visiting him and not ME?

Wow. That looks safe.

I'm just glad they're replacing the stairs. They were almost as dangerous as the "temporary replacements."

Call the Houston Fire Department and have them come and check out the arrangements. Looks like a firecode vioation to me.

And make sure Jennifer 'pinkie-swears'with you that she will visit you at least twice each year!!!

Oh my goodness! Crazy!!

Ha, DTB, I can't remember the last time I pinky-sweared anything! But I would certainly love to see Lindsey and family at least twice a year.

On that note, everyone's always welcome to come visit me in San Francisco!! (Except for Ashley, because I hear she doesn't like the city.) :-P
